Shall we cover other beta news this week? Yes! Why not? You may join us in a chortle.

The “kitchen sink” patch for Conan Exiles does not actually add kitchen sinks. It does, however, add a whole lot of stuff to the game just the same, so if you’ve been taking a break from the game after its launch you might want to go poke around again.

Yes, that’s all a bit quiet, but the list down below can be raucous despite our best efforts to silence it. You can let us know if parts of the list deserve more consideration down in the comments, like if a title has slipped into launch without us catching it. We keep putting up nets but some titles slip through. I suspect there’s a hive.

As always, we consider an MMO to be in open testing if it features free, public signups and will server wipe prior to launch. An MMO is marked in closed testing if it’s running a private test phase that cannot freely be accessed by the general public; it’s usually under NDA as well. Early access and crowdfunded MMOs whose tests we deem legitimate will be included. So-called “open beta” soft-launch MMOs with cash shops, no sign of launch in the west, or limited interest for our readers will not be listed; we also do not list expansions, with occasional exceptions.

Yes, MMO gamers, you too can perform the unpaid quality-control work otherwise known as game testing! Check out Massively Overpowered’s Betawatch every week for a run-down of MMOs that are still on the road to reality.

Revelation Online’s skill system looks cool, but it could wind up being ArcheAge 2. They’ve been mighty cagey about any plans for their overall financial scheme. That’s what I’m afraid of, so I’m waiting for open beta instead of buying an early access pack. Hopefully they don’t disappoint.
